View Poll Results: What system init daemon do you use
Wow, at this time, almost 24 hrs after it was first posted, the poll's showing 100% use of systemd. On the other hand, three sponses in 23+ hours is not a very good response rate
i suggest a short presentation of the differences between system init daemons and a brief explanation on how to know
wich is in use and how to change that...
as for me i don't even know how to check wich init daemon is used on my system !
Should Pat find it necessary to go to systemd at some point I will probably consolidate with the last Sys V Slackware version and use it until my hardware dies, or I do, whichever comes first.
using different brands of debian. Thanks for this beginning of an answer. noticed not many people feels like sharing their knowledge about init daemons with those wanting to learn...
I suppose i am disturbing some conversation here ? ... excuse me i leave now.
You can count yourself lucky: CentOS doesn't have that facility at all!

Since I am using Pinguy, a derivative of ubuntu, I get the same output as well.
I forgot to mention after you do that, type man init in the terminal and it should tell you it is using Upstart as its deamon.
